Where is it "written in textbooks" that "Kutuzov burned Moscow"?
OK, I'll allow it - where in the textbooks is it written that Kutuzov gave the order to burn Moscow?
Textbook - year, edition, page?
;) apparently so
I read it carefully:
"Most likely, Moscow was burned by order of M. I. Kutuzov" - and not most likely by who? The slowest by whom?
And there - when the French entered Moscow - Zamoskvorechye was burning, not Moscow.
Well, is it difficult to read a little further than the headline?
But what do I see!?
Mikhail Davydov, Doctor of History, Professor at the Institute of History and Archives of the Russian State University of Humanities, described the evolution of the official version of the fire as follows:
"In our homeland, historical concepts of the Moscow fire have consistently changed depending on the political conjuncture...
It's a book that 90% of people haven't read, because few people can cope with such a volume.
War and Peace has as much to do with history (reality) as The Hussar Ballad.
many history textbooks have the same attitude to reality.
that's right...
Well, because nobody knows that Moscow started burning before Napoleon set foot in the city.
It wasn't really the French who set the fire - Napoleon wanted to overwinter.
And of course everyone understands that the order to set it on fire was clearly not given
- because it was impossible to give such an order!
But everyone knew perfectly well that it had to be set on fire!

For those who haven't read the novel!
Moscow was burned down by its inhabitants, it's true; but not by those who stayed in it, but by those who left it. Moscow, occupied by the enemy, did not remain intact as Berlin, Vienna and other cities, only because its inhabitants did not offer bread-salt and keys to the French, but left it.
They told us in school that the inhabitants were setting fire to their houses when they left.
